CO 2 Fluxes and Soil Responses to Straw and Herbicide in Peanut

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 7, Page 2927-2944, 30 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Peanut cultivation plays an important agronomic role in Brazil, especially in rotation with sugarcane, promoting biological nitrogen fixation and improving soil quality. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that the combined use of sugarcane mulch, peanut cultivation, and herbicide application would affect soil CO₂ fluxes, soil chemical ...

Structural safety assessment and strengthening methods for masonry towers

Case Studies in Construction Materials
This paper focuses on masonry towers, a broad term encompassing various types of tall masonry structures. Their structural analysis remains an underexplored area in the literature, and consequently, is inadequately addressed by codes, standards, and ...

Seismic performance of masonry-infilled RC frames [PDF]

Urbanism. Arhitectura. Constructii, 2016
The masonry infill of RC frames structures is generally considered as non-structural. The design of the concrete frames is often made by ignoring the influence of the masonry infill, which is only accounted for its mass.

Numerical Investigation of Masonry Walls Using Mega-Interlocking Concrete Blocks

Modelling
Conventional concrete masonry construction consists of an assemblage of concrete blocks, mortar, grout, and steel reinforcement. While effective, this constructive method is constrained by its low productivity. In recent decades, advances in construction
